A couple of weeks ago, my husband burned out our blender making smoothies. He's a really good smoothie maker, it's just that our blender was older and not really made for heavy-duty smoothie making. So, after much research and going over our budget, we invested in a BlendTec. We are now converts. It also came with this really good tortilla soup recipe.

A classic Reuben sandwich has corned beef, sauerkraut, Thousand Island dressing, Swiss cheese, and rye bread. A Rachel has a lot of the same stuff, except it's made with pastrami and coleslaw. For the Reuchel, we used pastrami, Thousand Island dressing, Jarlsburg (a type of Swiss cheese), sauerkraut, and white bread. We also threw on some red onion, just for good measure.

This is a recipe I got from my mom. She's been making it as long as I can remember. It's pretty simple and very delicious. Even though this is usually a breakfast dish, it's great any time. If you use my pie crust recipe, you can make two quiches (double the recipe below).
